Reread the post.
I didn't find a "loophole". The test was administered incorrectly...twice. All I did was point that out to the doctor. When I retested, I tested within the correct range (in other words I passed). The whole point is that mistakes happen and it's up to you (the applicant) to catch them and correct them.
The test was for accommodation by the way, which has to do with how close to your eyes you can focus. This is not a test that you'd ever see at an FAA exam. My vision at the time was 20/10 and is now about 20/20 (though I think I will need reading glasses soon).
